Local K-theory index theorem conjecture

From papers

Let AA be an elliptic operator of order zero on MM. Let σ(A)\sigma(A) be its symbol, let [σ(A)]K1loc(Ψ0(M)/Ψ1(M))[\sigma(A)]\in K_{1}^{loc}(\Psi^{0}(M)/\Psi^{-1}(M)) be the corresponding local KK-theory class, let [R(A)]K0loc(Ψ1(M))[\mathbf{R}(A)]\in K_{0}^{loc}(\Psi^{-1}(M)) be its local analytical index class, and define

(TK.Index)(A)=[σ(A)],(AK.Index)(A)=[R(A)].(T^{K}.\operatorname{Index})(A)=[\sigma(A)],\qquad (A^{K}.\operatorname{Index})(A)=[\mathbf{R}(A)].

Local K-theory index theorem conjecture. For any elliptic operator AA,

K,loc(TK.Index)(A)=(AK.Index)(A),\partial^{K, loc}(T^{K}.\operatorname{Index})(A)=(A^{K}.\operatorname{Index})(A),

or equivalently,

K,loc([σ(A)])=[R(A)].\partial^{K, loc}([\sigma(A)])=[\mathbf{R}(A)].

This is the proposed index theorem at the local KK-theory level, identifying the connecting image of the topological index class with the local analytical index class. The supplied text gives no evidence that it has been resolved.
